2300KT PCP conversion parts wanted.

[Jayv2251]

I had Crosman build a 2300KT for me well over a decade ago. Unfortunately, it was right before the recession so it got put on the back burner. Several moves later and I'd like to complete this project. As it stands the 2300KT is a nice pistol, but I wanted something more like a carbine, so I had mine built with a 14" barrel with this conversion in mind. At that time a member of another forum was making a Co2 to PCP kit that allowed you to mount the tank to the rear of the pistol similar to AirForce rifles set up. His kit included a mount that replaces the rear gas tube cap. The mount was threaded so a tank could be screwed into it. It also featured a pressure gauge, an emergency relief valve, and then a port where you could run braided line or solid line from to a replacement gas cap. I can't find anything like this now on any of the few air gun parts links I still have that remain in business.

In comes Crosmods. I like what I see on their website, but I haven't been able to reach them via email. I would like to swap the steel breech I currently have with one of their aluminum ones making it easier to install their shroud. Since my barrel is only 14" long, I'd like to have them cut it down for me. What I'm having an issue with is how many baffles I need to order including the end cap. Crosmods also makes a gas cap to shoulder stock adapter so if I never find the PCP conversion parts, at the very least I've got the Co2-powered carbine I originally wanted.

I found something similar online to what I want to build, but it uses a hardline instead of a breaded hose. Also, the gas tube Co2 cap was different than the one in the picture I'm attaching. I will also note, that back then JDSair (which I can't find anymore) sold a slimmed-down carbon fiber tank I intended to use.

What I'm intending to use this for... Small game hunting. Right out of the box, the 2300KT is a great squirrel and rabbit killer. I wanted to build something that could reach out a bit further, hit just a tad harder, and with the possibility of a few more shots. I've had many discussions in the past about the trade-offs between power and the number of shots. I'm more of the middle the road incline. So I'm not sure how if this will warrant a Boss valve and widening the valve port.

Suggestions on how I can finish this project I started over 10 years ago???

Honestly, I really don't like the drop-in or replacement tube style 22xx conversions. I'm not claiming they don't work, they're just not my style. If I cannot find the conversion style I'm interested in, I would be as equally happy with keeping it C02 powered. I would like to know what other people's opinions are of the Boss Max Flo C02 valve. I've already taken plenty of squirrels and rabbits with it as is. With proper shot placement can I take raccoon or groundhogs?

Does anyone know if Crosmods is still open for business? The only way to contact them listed on the website is their email address, and I haven't been successful that way so far. I really like the breech and shrouds they offer.
